Tools like ChatGPT, which allow people to unlock the potential of large language models (LLMs), have taken the world by storm. Their ability to produce written output of remarkable quality has inspired, or forced, academics to consider its consequences for both research and education. In this seminar, we will explore how generative AI can assist researchers, for example, by producing (risk-)free pilot data, or streamlining the writing process. At the same time, it also raises a number of questions related to research integrity: how can we distinguish AI-generated data from “real” human data, what constitutes plagiarism, what about copyright,…. This seminar will provide a selective overview of these issues, drawing on personal experience and empirical evidence.
